on tho resolution callliiK for thn pavliiK with
v 1 1 rl Hod brick of the Kroup of streets situ
ated west of Main street until noxt Mon
day niKbt. This postponement of tho llnal
determination of tho resolution was dreinpd
expedient In view of tho fact that there wero
numerous petitions, unmo for brick and oth
ers for iisphaltiitn, also several protests
iiKiiltial pavlni; at all, tiled. ThlH will (live
tho aldermen time to cxumlnu tho petitions
and learn whether tho majority of the prop
erty owners luteiestcd 1110 In favor ot brick
or nsplialtum.
Numeinusly signed petitions for asphal
tiim were prehcnled by owners of property
abuttiiiK on Fourth avriiue. Sixth, Seventh
nnd Fijtlilh slrtels and First avenue. Tho
petitions stated that the signers tlesired tho

I'roinlNi'N from Itarher I'roplr.
W. C. Scarrltt of Kansas City, attorney for
the llurber Asphalt company, addressed the
council. Ho urged tho superiority of ns
phaltuiu for pavlug on tho grounds of Uh
sanitary properties, durability, freedom from
nolso and smooth, oven surface. The paving
laid by his company, ho said, would consist
of u live-Inch concrete base, a one and a
halt-Inch hinder and on top one nnd a halt
Inches of asphaltum. There hud never been
a suit brought against IiIh company, ho said,
for failure to fulfill Its guarantee. No ref
erence ns to tho cost of usphnltum paving
was made by Mr. Scarrltt. In answer to n
quustlon from Alderman McDonald, Mr.
Scarrltt said that It clven the contract for
paving the streets on which tho property
ow'ners desired asphaltum by the middle of
September his company could complete tho
work this fall. City Engineer Ktnyre. in
answer to 11 question from Mr. ScHrrltt, esti
mated that there were about fiO.000 yards of
paving on which Interested property owners
desired asphaltum to bo used.
Tho resolution calling for the curbing of
a number ot streets was adopted after the
following had been stricken from the list:
Park avenue, from Pomona street to Fair
mount park, and Pomona street, from Park
avenue to (lien avenue. These wore cut out
at the suggestion of Alderman I.ougee and
In opposition to Aldermen lloyer and Drown.
A protest against the paving of Fifth ave
nue between Third and Hluff streets was
tl leil and Alderman Lougeo tried to have
the curbing on this street also cut out. but
failed to secure a second to his motion.
The paying of this portion of Fifth avenue
comes iip for consideration with the thlid
resolution to bo acted on next Monday
night.
Fender Ordinance t!iri (Ivor,
Alderman McDonald's ordinance compell
ing the street railways to pluco fenders In
front of their ears was read the third
time and then laid over until next Mon
day night. Attorney Tlnley. who Higulll
cnntly stated that he expressed the senti
ments ot both the Suburban and the bridge
companies, urged that action on the or
dinance be deferred, as It was a matter of
great Importance to the companies. The
ordinance provides for one particular make
of fender, or one similar, and Mr. Tlnley
urged that there might 'be somo fender
equally as good that tho companies might
wish to adopt, but which under the present
condition of the ordinance they would be
prohibited from using.
The resolutions adopted by the Labor
and Trades tttuembly. to tho effect that
none but uulou labor be employed on public
Improvements and home material Uded as
far as practicable, were endorsed by unan
imous vote of the council.
On recommendation of the commltteo on
streets and alleys It was decided to widen
Pierce street betweeu First and Stutsman
streets by moving the curb back 011 each
side four feet. Thiu will make the width
of the street at this point conform with the
width ot tho balasce of the street.
K. A. Wlckhim was granted permission
to erect a fence In front of the Pacific
hotel building at Peorl street and llroad

erecting a modern oftlce building in its
place.
AInrni lln Held t'p.
The fire and light committee reported ad
versely against placing a lire alarm box ut
Fifteenth avenue and High street for want
ot funds. At the f'lggestion ot Alderman
Hrown. who thought the cost could bo
paid out of the general fund, final action was
deferred uuttl next Monday. The cost of
Installing un alarm box at thin point would
be J 204.
ictliiK on the report of the Are and
light committee, the old frame building

demned and the city attorney Instructed
to take the necessary steps for Its removal.

Tribute to t'nul Draper.
COUNCIL DI.UFFS, la., July 12. To tho
Kdltor of Tho Dee: The confirmation of the
report of the death of Lieutenant Paul
Draper brings despair to his many waiting
friends In this community, whose hope was
that It might have been a false report ns
published June 21). Hut tbo cablo message
of General MaeArthur leaves no doubt In
tho minds ot his friends who havo been
waiting his return with beating hearts, which
would have been this August, as his threo
years' services were up this month.
Lieutenant Paul Draper was of a fine, sol
dierly and gentlemanly nppearnnce, winning
tho eeteem of all his acquaintances. He
was In nearly all ot the hard fought bat
tles of thp Spanish war, Including Sun Juuu
hill, where ho was promoted to sergeant
for bravery. After this battle It was when
he wrote the memorable letter on tho to
mato can wrapper to his father, telling
of tho wonderful victory of the United
States. After the Spanish were subdued, he
was recallpd to tho United States to pre
pare for services In tho Philippines. Just
before leaving for the Philippines he visited
this community and told of many Incidents
of tho war with Spain, which his friends
will never forget. After taking his posi
tion in the Philippines under General Lxw
ton's command, ho was esteemed by the
whole command, not excepting his seneral,
who complimented hint for bravery. He was
promoted to nontenant of the Twenty-second
Infantry. At the time of his promotion
ho was prevented by his company with a
beautiful sword and pistol, besides other
minor gifts ot love nnd affection.
Paul Draper was named after his only
uncle, Paul Draper of this elty. He was
born and reared In the southern part of
Harrison county, near Persia, la. His father
went to Moscow, Idaho, where he now re
sides. Lieutenant Paul Draper was shot
from a ferry by men ambushed at the mouth
of the Nagapa river about June 27, but his
body was not recovered until June 30, and
was burled at San Isldro, Luton. U he had
lived until July 10 he would havo been
2t years old. J. K. SCHLOTT.

would bo the editorial page of the World
Herald of Wcduesday, July 11. Several
columns are devoted to ripping our Uncle

It. In with all of It Is a brief notice
(about a "stick of typ"), which speaks
of tho "good news for Omaha, etc., In the
niw dry goods Jobbing house to be opened
In your flourishing city. Of course it Is
good news when Jobbers, manufacturers and
other Industrial enterprises are knocking
for admittance. Dut when a country Is
going to tho dcmnltlnn bow-wows' there's
nary a knock by capitalists, be they repub
licans, democrats or populists. That one
littloi editorial shows the grand condition
of our country and it "knocked into a
cocked hat" all the weight or Influence the
